Medical technology: Precise vibration analysis with laser vibrometry

In the field of medical technology, precision and non-contact measurement methods are essential for advancing and refining medical devices and implants. Optomet’s laser Doppler vibrometers provide accurate vibration analysis, critical for evaluating devices like pacemakers, cochlear implants, and other medical prostheses. Our technology allows researchers to detect even the slightest vibration patterns without impacting sensitive materials, supporting the improvement of diagnostic processes and the creation of durable, reliable implants. For more information, reach out to our team and discover how our solutions can enhance medical technology innovation.

In medical technology, precise and non-contact measurement methods are crucial for the further development and optimization of implants and medical devices. Our laser Doppler vibrometers enable highly accurate analysis of vibrations that occur, for example, in the function of pacemakers, cochlear implants or other medical prostheses. Our non-contact technology detects vibration patterns without affecting the sensitive material. In this way, we contribute to the improvement of diagnostic procedures and the development of durable, reliable implants.

360 million people worldwide suffer from hearing loss, often caused by changes in the middle ear. By using our precise laser Doppler vibrometers, the vibration of the ossicular chain - consisting of the malleus, incus and stapes - is examined in detail. These vibration analyses enable researchers to assess hearing when the middle ear changes and to develop new middle ear prostheses that restore sound transmission and improve hearing. Our technology helps to optimize the function and transmission behavior of the auditory system, which is particularly important for the development and improvement of hearing aids.

Optomet laser vibrometers also play a central role in the development and optimization of medical devices and implants. Precise vibration measurements help to improve the longevity and functionality of implants such as pacemakers or cochlear implants. Non-contact measurement technology is particularly valuable for testing sensitive medical devices under realistic conditions. Areas of application include:

1. Analyzing the functionality and stability of pacemakers
2. Vibration measurement to improve hearing aids and cochlear implants
3. Vibration analysis of prostheses and implants to optimize their longevity and performance
